Whether you’re shopping for groceries or filling that hole your heart with a dazzling new ensemble, decrease how much waste you produce with your own grocery, shopping and produce bags and maybe you can even make a style statement while you'e at it.

Switch out your plastic Ziploc-type bags and replace them with glass containers, Pyrex containers, reusable boxes and/or wax paper. If you still have Ziplocs in your pantry, you can wash and reuse them.
